Do you have digital scales gman?

Do you always use them in the same place?

Do they remain in this place, at all times?

Are they set on a firm surface? ie not on carpet, or bouncy floorboards.

Has the battery been replaced recently?

If you've answered no to any of these questions, then you need to sort the situation out

Hope this helps

Yes to all of these , even at best was 2lb off ,at worse 2lb on.

Was this immediately after, or hours after? Maybe you need to calibrate your scales? I've never done it, but I found this

that's frustrating! If none of moreless suggestions apply, only one thing for it, but some new ones!

Hi Caz , disappointed to say the least .

Glad to hear you've had a good week. Hopefully you can get those scales sorted out so you can have a consistent reading, to reflect your progress, which hopefully will be excellent!
